3FORCE
Artist
Fusing modern EDM rhythms with retro synthesizer tones and injecting the result with a shot of science fiction, 3FORCE stand as pioneers in the next generation of synthwave artists.
The Russian trio took the synthwave world by storm in 2015 when they released their electrifying debut, Intergalactic. Loaded with eight tracks of cybernetic glory, the album’s mix of club-friendly beats and ‘80s melodic nostalgia established the group as one of the most innovative artists on the edge of the retrowave movement. The recording earned a loyal following and signaled a bright future for the group.
Building on the success of Intergalactic, 3FORCE’s breakout moment came in 2017 with the independent hit Resistance. The recording maintained much of the detailed, uptempo songwriting that fans had embraced on the debut, but elevated the songwriting to a new level. Songs like “Resistance” and “Grand Design” swing effortlessly from relaxed, gently rhythmic sections into full-bore electronic audio assaults, pounding out dancefloor rhythms and crater-forming bass blasts without ever compromising their melodic appeal. Each track tells its own instrumental tale, and together they paint the picture of an exciting and potentially perilous future world.
The act’s significant experimentation and top-notch execution earned them acclaim from the synthwave community, grabbing features on prominent Spotify playlists like Iron Skullet’s Synthwave / Retro Electro list and racking up hundreds of thousands of streams from their rapidly expanding fanbase. The artists’ unique blend of styles appealed equally to followers of EDM and the retro sounds of synthwave, creating a diverse and dedicated audience.
In late 2018, 3FORCE connected with FiXT Neon, and together, the artists and label are set to embark on a new era of synthwave. First up is a full re-release of the Intergalactic and Resistance albums, after which fans can look forward to 3FORCE’s most ambitious and exciting music creations to date. There’s no turning back now: 3FORCE is the face of the future.
